After months - actually years - of planning a girl's weekend finally did happen. Did you know that Nashville, Tennessee happens to be pretty much in the dead middle of Grand Rapids, Michigan and Jacksonville, Florida? Nope? It is! So we each drove the l.o.n.g 9+ hour drive, twice, only to have two short days together but it was so worth it. We spent time doing some touristy things, seeing iconic Nashville things, eating some good grub, drinking some cool adult beverages,and just spending time together which is a rarity for us.

Last night Colin's school had a Fall Festival. The kids came in costumes, ate snacks, played games, decorated pumpkins, and were able to show off their school.

We've been having an amazing fall! The weather has been terrific and the colors are even more amazing. Last week we headed to the park to play in the leaves and for a little scavenger hunt.

While we were on our scavenger hunt I found these train tracks. I can't wait to try a real photo shoot here!

After Grandma's funeral, we decided to spend some more time together as a family, enjoy the beautiful weather, and take in more of the ArtPrize.
